ScaleKeeper (GMTK Game Jam 2024)

Unfortunately we ran out of time and this game is in an unfinished state. We have decided to submit anyway so that we can show off the general idea even if it's not really that fun!

The game will also stop spawning crates after one minute which is kind of a serious bug! Oh dear ... I knew I shouldn't have shoe-horned in some code to increase the spawn-rate at the last minute :-/

Objective:

Throw crates onto the red and green platforms to adjust their weight. Dodge falling crates and bombs to stay alive!

Controls:

• Move with WASD or arrow keys.
• Jump with space bar.
• Pickup and throw things with E or left mouse button.
• Drop things with Q or right mouse button.

Tips:

• You can push the small boxes around by moving into them.
• You can throw the bombs.
• Boxes can crush you.
• Use bombs to move the heavy boxes.
• The red and green zones don't currently do anything - sorry!
